feeling very french today in my outfit. a simple striped bateau collar shirt from anthro, skinny jeans, flats and a some pops of red
parlez-vous francais?
dressing like a frenchy
glamming up an every day look
so when it’s raining, like it is today, just about the last thing i feel motivated to do is look cute. the absolute last thing i want to do is dry my hair.
but there’s something about a button down and sweater that just makes me feel like a boy. to glam up a basic look, i add a cute pair of flats, a statement necklace, and skinnies (to make sure i actually look like a girl. if skinnies don’t work for your body type, any other pair of jeans that you feel amazing in will work perfectly). oh and a ballet bun and lots of eyeliner and mascara.
get the look!

sometimes design can be overwhelming. but if you take an inspirational photo and break it down piece by piece it’s definitely attainable, and often at a much lower cost than the magazines and online rags we all drool over.
i stumbled upon this photo by photographer virginia macdonald featured on desire to inspire yesterday and fell in love immediately. i love the layered look, plus it’s light and airy and a little sassy with that punch of leopard print. at the end of the day though, you can break this overall vibe down into 5 essential pieces and then layer on top of that with light and airy pieces of art (and a good dose of white paint).
